Ever since then, taking the subway from Manhattan to Rockaway has been on my must do list!

( once I even convinced a lovely sales guy at Ralph Lauren, who lived close to Rockaway Taco, and who even ate one the day before, to bring one back to the city for me. That was until hurricane Irene decided to mess up my perfect delivery plan!)

Yup and I never managed to get all the way over there!

Only open during summer time, that doens't give me a big time-frame to work with.

But now, luck on my side,...

in some casual browsing on the internet, it just happened The Sporting Project + Colette decided to open a Rockaway Taco Pop Up!!

And that, the weekend us girls decided to head to Paris for my late birthday brunch!

Last year around this time, I read something very exiting on one of my favorite blogs ever; My New Roots.

She was giving another cooking class in Amsterdam!

So of we went!

I don't know what it is with winter time, but I crave nut butter ALL. THE. TIME!!

There is something about it! The nutty flavor, the texture, eating a healthier version of my childhood staple - really, I ate the stuff non stop with a spoon, finishing jar after jar! totally addictive I have now realized! what do you expect, they specialize in finding the right sugar-salt balance to keep us hooked! And I was their top consumer -

Now, knowing the importance of nutrition, trying to avoid all the processed crap, and making what I can myself...

I eat hazelnut, almond,... butter that only want the best for me!

- not what is best for the compagnies tching tching -

Think healthy fats, vitamins, protein,... all natural

And last year I learned by Sarah firsthand how to make that addictive nutella the healthy way!
